44 Bharat Petroleum Corporation Limited C. FOREIGN EXCHANGE EARNINGS / OUTGO (i) Activities related to exports; initiatives taken to increase exports; development of new export markets for products and services; and export plans : Crude Oil Imports Crude oil prices moved from their low of USD 45 per barrel at the beginning of the financial year to around USD 80/bbl at the end of the financial year 2009-10. This was mainly on account of optimism in the market following global financial recovery. Unlike the earlier years and the general trend of sweet crude oil grades (Brent) commanding premium over sour (Dubai) grades, the year 2009-10 saw Dubai prices commanding premium over Brent price. This was mainly due to regional variation like reduced demand in the United States, strong demand in India and China, production cut by OPEC countries and stability in Nigeria resulting in increased production of low sulphur crude oil. In order to take advantage of the prevailing low Brent-Dubai differential, BPCL carried out suitable changes in strategy in procurement of crude oil by changing the crude oil mix of its refineries. The average price of Dated Brent Crude Oil reduced by about 18% during the year from $ 84.45/bbl in 2008-09 to $ 69.62/bbl in 2009-10. Further, the sweet / sour (Dated Brent / Dubai) difference reduced substantially from $ 1.6/bbl in 2008-09 to $ 0.05/bbl in 2009-10. During the year, BPCL imported 14.40 MMT of crude oil as compared to 12.70 MMT in 2008-09. In value terms, the cost of imported crude oil on FOB basis amounted to USD 7560 million (Rs.35419 crores) as compared to USD 7961 million (Rs.36114 crores) in 2008-09. The average price stood at USD 70.4 per barrel as compared to USD 85.3 per barrel in the previous year. The ratio of “Term to Spot” purchase of imported crude oil was 62:38 lower as compared to 85:15 in 2008-09 mainly due to production cut by OPEC. For procurement of spot cargo, BPCL sought better terms and conditions with the suppliers, expanded the vendor base, added new grades of crude oil and opened up new avenues for procurement of crude oil from floating storage. All these steps have yielded substantial saving to the Corporation. Further, BPCL also facilitated procurement of 0.5 MMT Arab Mix crude oil for its joint venture refinery, Bharat Oman Refineries Ltd. (BORL) for initial start-up and commissioning activities. Product Import and Export On the products front, BPCL imported 1588 TMT of HSD, 33 TMT of SKO, 211 TMT of MS, 228 TMT of LPG to meet the shortfall in supply from domestic sources and 48 TMT of Reformate as blendstock during the year 2009-10. During the year, BPCL exported 2698.91 TMT of refined products. This was higher than the level of 1381.88 TMT exported during the previous year. Export of Fuel Oil increased from 664.29 TMT in 2008-09 to 982.58 TMT during 2009-10. Export of naphtha increased from 703.45 TMT in 2008-09 to 1341.45 TMT during 2009-10. During the year, BPCL also exported 352.39 TMT of High Sulphur Gas oil. The foreign exchange earnings from these exports amounted to USD 1442 million (Rs.6,733 crores) as against USD 757 million (Rs.3,362 crores) during the previous year. In recognition of its export performance, Director General of Foreign Trade awarded a recognition certificate to BPCL as a “Premier Trading House”. This was an improvement over the earlier recognition status as a “Three Star Export House”. ii) The details of foreign exchange earnings & outgo are given below :- Rs. Crores 2009-10 2008-09 Earnings in Foreign Exchange 10,301.35 6,567.42 - includes receipt of Rs. 1,636.56 crores (previous year Rs. 1,732.59 crores) in Indian currency out of the repatriable funds of foreign airline customers and Rs.12.18 crores (previous year Rs. 8.44 crores) of INR exports to Nepal and Bhutan. - Includes Rs.

Annual Report 2009-2010 131 CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS OF BHARAT PETROLEUM CORPORATION LIMITED

132 Bharat Petroleum Corporation Limited AUDITOR’S REPORT ON CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

To The Board of Directors of Bharat Petroleum Corporation Limited 1. We have audited the attached Consolidated Balance Sheet of Bharat Petroleum Corporation Limited and its subsidiaries and its joint ventures as at March 31, 2010 and also the Consolidated Profit & Loss Account and Consolidated Cash Flow Statement for the year ended on that date annexed thereto. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of Bharat Petroleum Corporation Limited’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit. 2. We conducted our audit in accordance with Auditing and Assurance Standards generally accepted in India. Those Standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion. 3. We did not audit the financial statements of the subsidiaries and joint ventures, whose financial statements reflect the Group’s share of total assets of Rs.14,822.98 crores as at March 31, 2010 and the Group’s share of total revenues of Rs.17,214.07 crores and net cash outflows amounting to Rs.530.07 crores for the year ended on that date as considered in the consolidated financial statements. These financial statements have been audited by other auditors whose reports have been furnished to us and our opinion, insofar as it relates to the amounts included in respect of these subsidiaries and joint ventures, is based solely on the report of the other auditors. 4. We have relied on the unaudited financial statements of four joint ventures, which reflect the Group’s share of total assets of Rs.103.72 crores as at March 31, 2010 and the Group’s share of total revenues of Rs.86.96 crores and net cash inflows amounting to Rs.9.10 crores for the year ended on that date as considered in the consolidated financial statements. We have neither carried out an audit or a review in respect of these financial statements. 5. We report that consolidated financial statements have been prepared by the management of Bharat Petroleum Corporation Limited in accordance with the requirements of Accounting Standard (AS) 21 – Consolidated Financial Statements and Accounting Standard (AS) 27- “Financial Reporting of Interests in Joint Ventures”, notified by the Central Government. 6. Without qualifying our opinion, we draw attention to: a. Note No. 9 of Schedule X, in respect of impairment of assets wherein, being technical matters subject to uncertainty we have relied on the estimates and assumptions made by the Company in arriving at recoverable value of assets, based on desired margins. b. Recovery of overdue amount of Rs.278.54 crores from a party in whose case arbitration award has been passed and consent terms agreed between the parties have been filed with the Hon’ble Bombay High Court. We have relied on the Company’s representation that the dues are recoverable as per consent terms and hence no provision is considered necessary. 7. Based on our audit and on the consideration of the separate audit reports of the other auditors on separate financial statements and on the other financial information of the components and to the best of our information and the explanations given to us, we are of the opinion that the attached consolidated financial statements, give a true and fair view in conformity with the accounting principles generally accepted in India: i) in case of the Consolidated Balance Sheet, of the consolidated state of affairs of Bharat Petroleum Corporation Limited, its subsidiaries, and its interests in joint ventures as at March 31, 2010; ii) in case of the Consolidated Profit and Loss Account, of the consolidated results of operations of Bharat Petroleum Corporation Limited, its subsidiaries, and its interests in joint ventures for the year ended on that date; and iii) in case of the Consolidated Cash Flow Statement, of the consolidated cash flows of Bharat Petroleum Corporation Limited, its subsidiaries, and its interests in joint ventures for the year ended on that date.

18. OIL & GAS EXPLORATION ACTIVITIES 18.1 BPRL follows the “Full Cost Method” of accounting for its oil and natural gas exploration and production activities. Accordingly, all acquisition, exploration and development costs are treated as capital work-in- progress and are accumulated in a cost centre. The cost centre is not normally smaller than a country except where warranted by major difference in economic, fiscal or other factors in the country. When any well in a cost centre is ready to commence commercial production, these costs are capitalised from capital work-in-progress to the gross block of assets regardless of whether or not the results of specific costs are successful. Depletion is charged on all capitalised costs according to the unit of production method. 18.2 Surrender of field / disposal of participation interest If BPRL were to surrender a field, the accumulated acquisition, exploration and development costs in respect of such a field are deemed to be fully depreciated. If the remainder of the wells in the cost centre continue to produce oil or gas, gain or loss is recognised only when the last well in the cost centre ceases to produce and the entire cost centre is abandoned. Also, in the event BPRL assigns or farms out the whole or any part of its participating interest, the corresponding carrying value of the capitalised amount is adjusted against the consideration and the net amount is credited or, as the case may be, is charged to the Profit and Loss Account in the year in which BPRL’s participating interest is assigned or farmed out. 18.3 Depletion Depletion charge is calculated on the capitalised cost according to the unit of production method. The depreciation charge or the unit of production (UOP) charge for all costs within a cost centre is calculated by multiplying the UOP rate with the production for the period. The unit of production rate is arrived at by dividing the depreciation base of the cost centre by the Proved Oil and Gas Reserves. The depreciation base of a cost centre includes gross block of the cost centre, estimated future development expenditure and estimated site restoration expenditure and is reduced by the accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment charge of the cost centre. The estimates of proved reserves used are based on the latest technical assessment available with BPRL.

19. MISCELLANEOUS EXPENDITURE Share-issue expenses of Bharat Oman Refineries Limited would be written-off in the year the company commences commercial production. Other preliminary / pre-incorporation expenses of JVCs / subsidiaries is charged to Profit and Loss Account.

9. Impairment of Assets Determination as to whether and how much an asset is impaired involve Management estimates of highly uncertain matters such as international prices of crude oil and products, duty structure and Government policies. It is assumed that suitable mechanism would be in place, in line with earlier/ current year(s), to provide compensation towards under-recoveries of margin, if any, on account of sale of sensitive petroleum products in subsequent years. Hence, future cash flows have been worked out based on the desired margins for deciding on impairment of related Cash Generating Units. No impairment is therefore considered as at 31st March 2010.
